ERRORS IN TIE BILL,

1t is true that on the 2lst Of June,
1870, soon after his death there
was a meeting of the officers of the
Methodist church at Pulaski and
that they were the officers designa-
ted in said will in the 9th and l1th

whether there was presiding elder
present or not, but if there was ii

is not true that such bonds or cash
were ever under the control or in

debt is yet unpaid.
And it is not true that all of said
money was reised upon the idea
that said school was to be under
the control of the Methodist church
or that the greater part of it was
subscribed by Methodists or that the
trustees received such fund with
any such trust, whatever may haye
been the intention of any subscri-
ber, but they are informed that the
greater portion of the subscriptions
were made with the understanding
that said school was not to be de-
